This heated yoga studio has it all... community, 26+2 (formerly Bikram), Advanced classes, Vinyasa, Yin, Yinyasa, Ashtanga and specialty classes. Some classes like Vinyasa are heavily attended by many regulars. The teachers and excellent and friendly. They give helpful tips! The studio is located over the Grounds for Coffee shop. The design of the studio is generously graced with stones, plants, crystals and good vibes. It's a great place to go!! read more

Stopped in for a hot yoga class while passing through town and would absolutely do it again. Great vibe, fun but tough flow. Good music and a friendly teacher. I don't love yoga in front of the mirror but sometimes it's good to look at yourself. And smile. read more

This place has made me come SO far in so many ways. My body and brain have been all messed up from my car accident. I have become a whole new person because of this place. I have seen amazing changes in other people as well. I have become more kind and patient with people. I have lost a ton of weight as well. I didn't even notice until someone said something to me the other day. Higher Ground Hot Yoga is an amazing place. they have amazing people and fun activities to do. What a great group of people to hangout with! read more

This place is above the coffee shop. You need to enter into the coffee shop and go up the stairs. The teachers are excellent and the community is even better. Way non-judgmental and you are free to practice how you need to. Super supportive staff and lots of body types practicing here. This place is great! read more

I do love higher ground hot yoga and maybe I'll continue to go. I tried out the $50 unlimited and I'll give you my honest thoughts. I've traveled a bit and I've been to a lot of hot yoga. For one. Lack of space is a my biggest complaint.They need to control the amount of people they allow, and allow less. They pack you in here like a can of sausages and not the good kind. I have left here with my yoga mat drenched in another man's truly god awful foul smelling sweat and I can't get it out of my mat. I bent over in Padottanasana and well nearly hit face to face with a strangers ball sa**. You can smell what the person next to you had for dinner and you have to move in such a way that it affects your practice. So I'll give the amount of space they give you a no go. Or maybe they just need to open more locations. Second no go is one of the instructors said some super insulting things like "Maybe some of you are stupid and should use your brain." And "Maybe some of you should be getting on your knees and begging for forgiveness from God." And not in a nice way either. He said it with a laugh. Super. Super rude. He also pumped up the heat way higher than what was supposed to be for that class. No other instructors had done that. Positives-All of the other instructors I experienced were fantastic. Heat as to be expected, awesome flow to the classes. Etc. The bathrooms are clean and they also offer showers if that's your jam. You can trust that your stuff won't get stolen which is a big perk. It's located on top of a coffee shop which smells fantastic so you can grab a cup before or after. read more

New to Utah, faith led me to this awesome town of Ogden, and to the best spot in town, Higher Ground Hot Yoga. Instantly I was welcomed into the Higher Ground Yoga family. I couldn't of asked for anything better, I'm hooked who else takes 2 classes a day every day. I can't stay away, being new in town, all the anxiety, born and raised in the Bay Area, never leaving Cali in all my 41 years of life. Thanks to Higher Ground Yoga for making my transition very easy. read more

Every time I leave a hot yoga class at higher ground i feel rejuvenated, healthy, and inspired! Every instructor i have had has a unique way of teaching yoga that keeps me on my toes! The facilities are very clean, and the studio is located above a coffee shop where the smells are free! The staff is very personable and very friendly. I have taken classes with my whole family ranging from 18-45 years old and they have all enjoyed it! read more

Tried this place out and was disappointed. The instructor was boring and very monotone. The room was too hot and I'm used to hot yoga. Finally, another yogi requested the fans to be turned on and I literally exclaimed, "omg, finally!" The instructor still didn't turn on the fans, but at least he adjusted the air. The facilities seem nice and the room was clean. I like that it's above a cute little coffee shop, which also sells kombucha on tap! I would try this place again, but with another instructor. read more

Higher Ground is the best yoga studio I've been to in Utah, teachers and staff are beyond amazing. 10/10

Higher Ground has an eye for great instructors. Had Dillon today and he's very soothing and at the right times, funny. i enjoyed this class!

I did a drop in class and it as wonderful. Beautiful historic building that has been loved enough to bring it up to today's standards. The owner welcomed me, gave me the background of the Instrutor and helped me place my rental mat. The class was just what I needed to get through my travels. Don't miss the cafe on the ground floor. Kombucha on tap and amazing healthy and sinful treats. read more

I was looking for a studio to practice when I was visiting family in Utah, and came across this little gem. I absolutely love this studio and the staff. I've taken Bikram classes all over the world (including India), and I just love the charm that this studio offers. Mike (the owner) has an amazing energy about him, and welcomed me with a friendly smile before my class. There was a teacher that morning that was *fantastic*! Her name was Lacey, and she was a "guest teacher" visiting from out of town. Highly recommend taking her class if she's on the schedule... I will definitely be back the next time I am town! :) read more

Sweet sweaty promotion: $39 for your first month. At $15/class, that's only 3 classes! It's definitely going to motivate me to get bendy this summer! TIPS: -Don't map the location on the address listed - use Grounds for Coffee's 111 25th Street address. Walk in & head up the stairs on the left. -You can rent mats & towels or bring your own. read more

My first experience with hot yoga and Higher Ground offered an awesome atmosphere and class. The yoga instruction was good and the view of the snowy mountain tops from the classroom windows made a perfect setting for hot yoga. Plus, there's a great coffee shop below it and good eateries close by. read more

When I was visiting Utah I was able to practice yoga at this studio. The instructor on Saturday morning was very nice. I enjoyed his style and less aggressive teaching methods. My only feedback is that the room was not that hot. Price is reasonable and appreciated! Hope to come back soon during my next travels out to Utah. read more

I absolutely love this place! Coming from a heavy basketball background I was hesitant on how I'd fit in, I've never been flexible before and I didn't want to stand out.. I was shocked by how welcomed I felt by everyone there. Not once have I felt unwelcome or discouraged. In class if there was ever a pose I didn't feel comfortable doing (because of a knee injury at time) the instructor would show me a variation so I could engage with the rest of the class. Every instructor I've had has been nothing but great. Oh and It's such a great workout! I always leave feeling so uplifted and ready for the day ahead. Debi, one of the managers is awesome! She really cares about what she does and it shows. I highly recommend read more

If you are someone who has never done real yoga go ahead and take a class at this Ogden Bikram Yoga class. If you on the other hand love Vinyasa Flow, Ashtanga, or any other free flowing spirituality based yoga Bikram style yoga is likely to creep you out and turn you off from hot yoga practice! I have a problem with a teacher who has to follow a script its super disingenuous and like I said before CREEPY.. Also they will sell you on the first time only bargain 30 days for $35 pass which if you add up their overpriced classes is a great deal until you take the first class and realize that this is NOT for you, no refunds!! Also don't try to leave this misery early as the teacher will chase you out and basically tell you that you have to stay for the whole class. I wish we had a regular hot yoga place as I think the benefits detoxing through a grueling bout of hot yoga would be good for me. I will never go back to any Franchise Mc Donald's style yoga hut ever again!!! read more

Higher Ground Hot Yoga - Yoga Near Me - Ogden, Utah

As of this review, I've gone to Higher Ground five times. I've practiced with four different instructors and I've tried three different class types: 90 Minute Beginners Hot Yoga, Warm Yin Yoga, Beginners Vimana Yoga. I love this place. I'm definitely a beginner. I have tight hips and hamstrings. I can't touch my toes. However, this place always makes me feel comfortable. The class always has advanced students and they seem to love it too. I think it takes a pretty great studio to make all students feel welcome in a class. I grabbed a Groupon for 15 classes - great deal!! They also have an introductory offer for unlimited for one month for $39. After that, this place is pretty expensive just like most yoga studios. Sometimes the hot yoga aspect of it is pretty intense. My clothes are always soaked through by the time I leave, but my mind and body both feel so rejuvenated afterwards. They have a lot of great info on their website for new students so if you're not sure what it's like or what to bring, check it out! The instructors are always willing to answer questions before/after class as well read more

Getting rid of lower back pain. I had three slipped disks in my lower back L3, L4, & L5. The pain was so bad I had a difficult time walking. I started out in the beginner class and could only move a little bit. I have been consistant with about 4 classes a week over the last 10 weeks and now I feel like I could go enter the American Ninja Warrior competition. If you have any issues with joint, muscle, or back pain you need to make the life changing commitment and start taking care of your body. I would highly recommend this studio because of the heated room and the professionalism of the instructors. read more

Thank you, Ogden, for offering hot yoga! I love the Bikram type series, I did it for 30 days straight and within two weeks my arms and legs were toning noticeably. I see that someone only gave one star for this review. Too bad they didn't understand the reason why you aren't suppose to get up and just leave at any time. Check it out and learn. Maybe this type of yoga isn't for everyone, but I sure love it and I love the instructors. read more

Favorite, most professional yoga studio in Ogden. The teachers care about every person in the class & want you to succeed regardless of your skill level. Judgement free zone that promotes positivity and well being. You won't find a better yoga studio in Ogden. read more

This studio has stood out to me in my exploring Utah. Though confusing to find (despite the clear signs "yoga upstairs" lol) I love the blending of coffee, food, and yoga blended into one space! This studio has an older yogi feel to it with strong practitioners and instructors. Looking forward to what they have to offer! read more

BYC is located in the back of Grounds for Coffee. Just walk into the cafe, head up the flight of stairs on the left into the second floor. First class is free! read more

Told me she would leave the gate open so I made the effort of still coming in. Got there ... door locked. Waited for 10 minutes Wasted 60 minutes of my day driving down and waiting. Next time just say no, don't say yes, check me in, tell me you'll get me in and just forget about me. Rude and disrespectful. read more
